Enlightening Museum

The museum is probably one of the best I have ever gone to. The multiple collections here are very interesting. If you like art and jewelry this is a must go to. There is also antique religious items and carpentry.

Unusual but Great

This is an unusual, personal collection of southwestern items, including pieces from each of the three cultures, but focused more on the Native Americans. The pottery collection and its presentation is outstanding. I live near Taos and this is the one Museum that I return to periodically.

Amazing Collection

If you are at all interested in Native American ceramics, jewelry or weavings, this is a must see museum. The collection is extensive and very educating. The artworks are housed in a very well conserved adobe home that is the perfect space to enjoy so many masterpieces.
